Artix-7 FPGA Maximum Clock Speed

[sean_zhao]

Hi,

Can anyone please help me with the maximum clock speeds supported in Artix 7 FPGA?

We are using XC7A100T-FTG256 FPGA.

Thanks,

Sean.

This has some clock data... https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/data_sheets/ds181_Artix_7_Data_Sheet.pdf

Hope that helps

@sean_zhao The "hard" limit is just over 1GHz; that's the fastest it's possible to drive the flip-flops.

The realistic limit is around 300 - 500MHz for carefully-optimized logic with plenty of spare routing resources on the chip, and for "bulk logic" I'd be expecting to run at 100 - 200MHz.
